Question 108728: find three consecutive integers such that the sum of the first and third is 63

let x=first, so x+1=second and x+2=third ... x+x+2=63 ... there is no solution

this is a parity discrepancy
... the first and third of 3 consecutive integers will have the same parity (either both odd or both even)
... their sum will always have even parity
